History and architectural features

This district encompasses twelve contributing commercial buildings that were built between 1857 and 1865. They are characterized as three-story brick buildings that were erected over full basements. Designed in the Italianate style, they reflect Erie's mid-nineteenth-century central business district. The district includes the Bindernecht Block, the Purcell Hardware Store and the "Marble Front" building. A number of the buildings were designed and built by John Hill, who also built the John Hill House that is located in the West Sixth Street Historic District.^[2]
